Energy storage systems allow you to store excess electricity generated by your residential or commercial solar panels for later use. During the day, your solar panels produce energy, and any surplus is stored in the batteries. When the sun sets, during cloudy weather, or when time-of-use billing is highest, you can tap into this stored power. Home batteries reduce your reliance on the grid and ensuring your home or business stays powered during outages.
It’s a smart and flexible solution that gives you more control over your energy, making solar even more efficient and reliable.
Stay powered through any outage with a home battery backup system installed by Kuby Energy. We specialize in Tesla Powerwalls and numerous other energy storage systems, giving you multiple options to maximize your solar investment.
A home power storage battery delivers three key benefits:
These compact, stackable units integrate perfectly with your existing solar power batteries for home, whether you want:
• Outage protection (keep essentials running)
• Partial off-grid capability (reduce dependence by 50-80%)
• Full energy independence (100% off-grid systems)
As certified battery storage experts, we optimize every system for your home's specific energy patterns and needs.
At Solar by Kuby, we offer both the Tesla Powerwall 2 and the latest Powerwall 3, designed to enhance your solar experience with reliable backup power.
While both models have a usable capacity of 13.5 kWh, Powerwall 3 provides improved power output, making it ideal for large appliances, pool equipment, and heating and air conditioning units. It also boasts higher efficiency at 97.5% compared to 90% for Powerwall 2. Powerwall 3 includes an inverter reducing the need for additional third party devices.
As a certified Tesla Powerwall installer, Solar by Kuby is one of the most experienced Powerwall installers in AB and BC.
Kuby offers numerous battery options, including Canadian products such as Eguana.

BC Hydro’s Time-of-Day pricing helps you reduce electricity costs by shifting energy use to off-peak and overnight hours when rates drop to their lowest. With your own home battery system, you can store this discounted overnight electricity (at 5¢/kWh savings from 11 p.m. to 7 a.m.) along with any surplus solar energy, then use it during expensive peak hours when rates climb.
Investing in a home battery backup storage system is a smart way to optimize your power costs while supporting a more efficient grid. Whether you have solar panels or not, energy storage systems help profit from dynamic energy prices and will make your electricity more reliable.

Our decision to purchase a Tesla Powerwall through Kuby Renewable Energy was a a great choice! [...] When our unit was brought out for installation and commissioning, two experienced Electricians, Simon and Paul took great care in their work. They arrived on time, completed their work as estimated, were courteous, and on departure, left our home as they would a clean worksite!

Yes, they can! With proper sizing, solar battery systems can provide extended backup power. We design systems to meet your specific needs for outage protection.
Absolutely. We can integrate home battery storage with most existing solar installations after evaluating your system's compatibility. However, in most cases, installing energy storage alongside new solar panels is more cost-effective, as it reduces labor and equipment expenses compared to retrofitting later.
With BC Hydro's Time-of-Day pricing, battery storage helps maximize savings by storing cheap overnight power (5¢/kWh discount) and solar energy for peak hour use. Your solar battery becomes a profit center by strategically discharging stored energy when rates are highest.
